Yeah, but, to me, that's "continuity irrelevent", rather than
"anti-continuity". 

Anti-continuity would be if they *hadn't* established the Ultimates line, and
just printed the stories without any concern as to how they contradicted their
other titles.

Anyway, the Ultimate Universe now has it's *own* interlocking continuity.
